Verdant Landscapes

An IslandNation

With over 11,000 miles of coastline and abundance of lakes, rivers and canals we are never far from the water. Tranquil islands, dramatic headlands and beautiful bays are part of our unique geography and geology. Moving inland we have more than 2,200 miles of canals and over 40,000 lakes and lochs, all adding to the varied and verdant landscapes of the Great British Isles.
